Posted in: UncategorizedRotary Clubs and Dolly Parton to Push Children Reading Campaign
Posted in: UncategorizedIn an effort to boost the literacy level of kids today, Rotary clubs have partnered with country music legend Dolly Parton to promote literacy bridges the pop culture gap. Rotary International today announced a collaboration with Parton’s Tennessee-based Dollywood Foundation to promote early childhood reading.
Rotary clubs in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom are encouraged to support the foundation’s Imagination Library program, which provides books to children from birth until age five, so that parents can begin reading to them as soon as possible.
The program is especially valuable for children in underprivileged and working class families for whom children’s books might be an unaffordable luxury. Rotary club participation could include promoting the program locally, helping to identify and register the children, and paying for the books and mailings. The average annual cost is $28 per child.

BluefirePoker.com Aims to Prove Poker as a Game of Skill
Posted in: Uncategorized
To help address the growing issue of gambling associated with Poker, BluefirePoker.com (a non-wagering Poker training site via online videos) is willing to put its money where its mouth is – to prove that Poker is a game of skill, not luck.
The folks at www.BluefirePoker.com are offering $1,000,000 to President Obama or any member of the U.S. Congress willing to play a Poker game against any of their poker pros, and the winnings can go to the charity of choice. BluefirePoker.com will put up $1,000,000 against $1 for a chance to play with either President Obama or any member of the U.S. Congress.
The legislative debate centers on whether or not Poker is a game of chance or skill, and this debate determines the legality of online gambling, according to legal and legislative experts on the subject. No one in their right mind would turn down this challenge if Poker were a game based on luck, because the odds are so far in their favor – putting up $1 for a chance to win $1,000,000 for the charity of their choice.

MINNEAPOLIS (AdAge.com) — Forget falling hemlines. It's falling ratings two fashion shows had to watch out for last night, as the CW's "America's Next Top Model" and Bravo's "Make Me a Supermodel" had their season premieres. Amid grim economic news — including at several high-end retailers that use supermodels to sell — it was unclear if penny-pinching viewers would still make haute couture hot culture.

Posted in: UncategorizedTryvann Winter Park: The snowing billboard
Posted in: UncategorizedTryvann Winter Park is a modern and highly equipped ski resort only 15 minutes from the center of Norway’s capital city, Oslo. Whilst downtown can be completely free of snow, Tryvann can be a winter wonderland with perfect ski conditions. A smart technical solution made it possible to create a mini snowstorm inside transparant billboards. Every time it snowed at Tryvann Winter Park, mini snowstorm was started and stopped by sending an SMS.
